Academic Flexibility:
My school has made getting my Master's degree and counseling certificate very convenient and simple. My classes and the curriculum are very flexible, with due dates for assignments only 2 days a week and the program schedule consisting of only 2 courses at one time for 11 weeks and then a week break. So it gives a lot of flexibility for work and family events and such.

Overall Experience:
Overall, I really have enjoyed attending my school and would attend it again if I have to do it over. What makes it unique is that everything is online and that assignments are due 2 days out of the academic week and the rest of the week is all on the students own time to do reading and work on assignments and such. It is very flexible and convenient for people that need to work while going to school and finishing their degree. Also, getting my tuition payments in was never a huge issue; all that they really cared about was me just getting my schooling done and doing well in my classes.

Overall Experience:
The courses offered at this school are very particular for each desired program and very specific to particular topics within the field of study fro each program. I really like that I have enjoyed and found each of the courses I've taken to be very informative and interesting. And the class size and style has always fit well with the type of course it is and the workload and such. Great classes and the professors always get back to you if you have questions about homework or an assignment.

Overall Experience:
My overall experience with this program and online school is very happy and satisfied. After getting my Master's degree and counselor certification from this school, I will be qualified to work as a counselor in any county in the state of California. And most likely, wherever I received my field experience hours from for my final year of the program, that is where I will be working or looking for job prospects at.

Online Courses:
Online schooling definitely differs from the traditional classroom experience, but I enjoy the stress-free atmosphere that the online classroom provides. I do not feel as anxious about my discussions and responses with other classmates, as compared to when you're in the classroom together and everyone is staring at you while you are participating in class. Also, the workload is a little more, but it is in a different type of way; it's not an overwhelming workload, it is just more thinking and effort on the individual's part to participate extra in the online classroom.

Student Body:
I really enjoy the diversity of the student body at my school. On my conference call the first day of classes, almost every student I met was from another state or country than I and definitely a range of ages. It's nice to feel like even though we are all very different we still come together and have our passion of school and dedication as our bond.

Tuition & Financial Aid:
I feel that the tuition price for my program was a little high, but I also was very picky with what I wanted in a program and this program and the curriculum and workload have fit my work schedule and life perfectly. So the price has been worth it to me, and getting my payment in was never a huge issue. They were always more focused on me doing well in my classes then stressing out about getting a payment in.

Academic Experience:
My particular program is for clinical mental health counseling, with a specialization in addiction counseling and the workload and curriculum is quite simple and easy to follow along with. With the completion of this program, I will have many different counseling opportunities to choose from for my career.

Academic Experience:
The academics is what really pulled me in and motivated me to go back to school and finish my schooling. I like that the professors are very up front and honest and helpful with the students. Also, the class registration process was effortless, literally my enrollment adviser did everything for me, which was very nice.

Overall Experience:
My first course, learning and living in a Technological world. My instructor Mrs Jennifer Kozar was very helpful. she would often respond to every ones posting on discussion board and provide feedback to assignments in time.
